CHORUS ONE 
                                                                         
My D first taste of Texas 
Had blue-eyes and golden A hair. 
Be E neath a Tennessee silver moon E7 
We found a feelin’ we could A share. 
And D age made no difference 
I’d been around..and she was A young 
But my E first taste of Texas. 
Still E7 lingers in my heart..and on my A tounge. 
 
 
VERSE  ONE 
                                                  
Her A gentle heart was broken. 
in a D way a tender lady shouldn’t A have to know. 
And mine was somewhere in-between D 
something I should hold on to or A let go 
Her D talk and blue-eyes told me 
the story of the love she failed to A find. 
And without conversation.. 
I E suppose the lines on E7 my face told her A mine 
 
 
REPEAT CHORUS ONE 
                                                                         
My D first taste of Texas  
had blue-eyes and golden A hair. 
Be E neath a Tennessee silver moon E7 
we found a feelin’ we could A share. 
And D age made no difference 
I’d been around..and she was A young. 
and,my E first taste of Texas. 
still E7 lingers in my heart..and on my A tounge 
 
 
BRIDGE  
                          
A Cause we’re not Bm7 done {D}. 
we’ve E only just A begun 
begun to Bm7 love.{D}  
now the two of us are E one E7 
And D age made no difference 
we’re still around and love still A young 
And my E first taste of Texas.. 
still E7 lingers in my heart..and on my A tounge. 
 
 
REPEAT CHORUS  
 
My D first taste of Texas  
had blue-eyes and golden A hair. 
Be E neath a Tennessee silver moon E7 
we found a feelin’ we could A share. 
And D age made no difference 
we’re still around... and love’s still A young. 
and, my E first taste of Texas. 
still E7 lingers in my heart..and on my A tounge.
